Interesting information found on the internet regarding Limoges
History:
"Say the word Limoges and everyone knows a bit about it. But did you
realize Limoges can encompass any number of manufacturers or artisans
making these pieces? Many uninformed people think that Limoges (silent
S) is the name of a company...this is not so. The name Limoges can be
used on any piece that is made with kaolin clay and made in the City
of Limoges. In fact, this is the only French law there is regarding
markings on these porcelain pieces, anything else can be put on a
piece. Unfortunately, this can make it difficult for a collector to
identify different pieces or manufacturers."
